00:00We can talk about the prospects and we can hump that idea as much as we want and there is a haul
00:06And there's one of those prospects who I really really like an awful lot, but but the main point is this
00:12This is an emblem of organizational failure
00:15when it's
00:16Logical at all
00:18To send this guy away
00:21You know how hard it is to hit
00:23on the number 11 draft pick
00:26And four years later
00:28Have the guy with the best strikeout rate of any starting pitcher in baseball
00:34They nailed it and it's so difficult to do that
00:38It's the number 11 pick in the draft and you took a guy with a spotty injury history and however it happened
00:44You took him in 2020
00:46There are only four all-stars from that draft around major league baseball
00:51Wow, one is one is jordan westberg. The other two are braves picks spencer strider at 126
00:58Bryce elder at 156
01:00But you got garrett crochet at number 11 from that pick and he's above
01:05Chris sale tarik scooble and sonny gray and strikeout rate as a starting pitcher. He's absolutely dominant
01:11This is the pinnacle of what you want a front of the rotation starter who's super cheap
01:16For the next couple of years and you're so bad at everything else as an organization
01:22That you have to send him away with prayers that your prospect hall
01:26Is worth it and you're eight years removed
01:30From doing it with chris sale and we know how that turned out sending him to the exact same team
01:35And they won a world series where he got the final out. Yeah, and your
01:40pieces that you got from it
01:43gave you
01:44Mixed results and eventually all left you with nothing
01:50It's it's a brutal emblem of a bad organization and we can talk about the prospect hall, but don't lose sight of the headline
